How AI coded an entire lantern festival from scratch
A full lantern festival scene, with crowds of walking NPCs, reflective water, hundreds of glowing lanterns and fireworks bursting over the river, all built by Claude Opus 5.5.
It started from one prompt, then two follow ups for more vegetation and bigger fireworks. About 8 hours of work and only 13% of a weekly Max budget, for a 3D scene that would have been a small studio project a few years ago.
Made by u/Silver-Chipmunk7744. This write-up follows the original post; it is not an independent product test.
Keep up with what gets built.
